hub 4 turn off wifi

[andrewmm]

How do I turn off the wifi on the new virgin Hub 4,

    It was broken on the Hib 3, we could not disable it

        I have been "down graded" to the hub 4 now

 can't seem to find out how to disable the virgin wifi !

Is it still not possible , or do I need to look again ?

It's in the settings, but may I ask why you need to turn off the WiFi most people only use Wifi.

Thank you 

Yes, it was in the settings, just on the Hub 3,

Seems it was my impatience, I apologise,

   I renamed and changed the pass word on the virgin wifi, 

      then disabled it, 

  checked with a lap top, and the name change had happened, but it was not turned off.

So can re name it , but not turn it off.

Ah well.

as to why do I want to do it .

  Well, have house over three floors, and a granny annex, and house is wired for Ethernet cable and my own managed WiFi 

    One Virgin hub does just not cut the mustard,

“Well, have house over three floors, and a granny annex, and house is wired for Ethernet cable and my own managed WiFi ” if you are doing this I have a suggestion. Buy a router, NOT a consumer router that also has WiFi and a network switch in it, just a plain router. This would offer a lot of other monitoring facilities and you would run the Hub4 in modem mode. My Hub4 works exceedingly well in modem mode. I use all Ubiquiti/Unifi networking equipment.

Thank you

all the network gear is either HP or Cisco,  

   What would you suggest for a firewall appliance for the 500 Mb/s ?

      Still seems that we should be getting a discount as we are having to do this as there equipment has software faults that they decide not to fix.

I have this that will be good for 1Gb

ZyWALL VPN300 VPN Firewall | Zyxel

or the VPN100 for a bit over 500Mb TCP speeds

ZyWALL VPN100 VPN Firewall - Specifications | Zyxel

Thank you

Paying 600 Quid for something to get around a problem Virgin wont fix in there firmware seems a bit "odd"

The edge router 4 you point to , is GBP 180 

But it does look like its fast enough 

Good find,
